I just read that tech note and it says that you should call Microsoft to recreate the checkpoint file. You can also use these steps. Appendix B How to correctly reset the TSM password for the node that is used to backup the cluster resources. Note: these steps must be followed or else the password will not be correctly set in the Microsoft Cluster *.cpt file on the Quorum drive.
